Erholung der chilenischen Kupferproduktion (SG)
|
|
|
Laut dem Vorsitzenden des größten Kupferproduzenten Chiles wird das Unternehmen dieses und nächstes Jahr seine Minenproduktion im Vergleich zum Vorjahr voraussichtlich leicht steigern können. Dies wäre eine Überraschung angesichts der Tatsache, dass die Produktion aufgrund eines Unfalls in einer der wichtigsten Minen des Unternehmens (El Teniente) deutlich beeinträchtigt wurde. Bislang liegt die Minenproduktion des Landes, das im vergangenen Jahr noch 23% des globalen Kupfererzes gefördert hatte, insgesamt noch etwa 3% unter dem Vorjahresniveau (auf Basis der Daten des Statistikamtes bis einschließlich September). Sollte der größte Minenproduzent Chiles in der Tat seine Produktion in den kommenden Monaten noch spürbar ausweiten können, könnte dies die aktuellen Sorgen rund um einen Rohmaterialmangel deutlich lindern..

A government attempt to impose ethical guardrails on the use of artificial intelligence in Chile is drawing pushback from global technology giants, a debate that could set precedents as nations around the world reckon with how to regulate the rapidly growing industry....

Latin American Political Earthquake: Milei's Midterm Victory In Argentina Puts Chile In Focus Ahead Of Elections
After Javier Milei's surprise midterm victory in Argentina (documented here), along with the market reaction (see the Goldman note here), attention now shifts across the Andes to Chile's first-round presidential election next month.
Cryptocurrency-based prediction market Polymarket shows a potential victory for conservative free-market candidate Jose Antonio Kast, who is politically aligned with Jair Bolsonaro in Brazil and Milei in Argentina. The trend suggests that socialist power in Latin America may be weakening.
Chile Presidential Election:
Kast: Social conservative, focuses his campaign on crime and immigration. Promises spending cuts, but would need congressional alliances to govern, limiting drastic policy moves.
Johannes Kaiser: Anti-establishment libertarian, similar to Milei, but with limited support.
Jeannette Jara (leftist, Communist Party affiliation)...

Poetry in motion: the most joyous four hours I′ve ever spent on a train | Adrian Chiles (The Guardian)
|
|
|
The plug sockets may not work and there isn't a trolley service, but the Heart of Wales Line is a friendly, bustling, beautiful treatI've had this book lying around at home, Lonely Planet's Amazing Train Journeys. I don't think it's been opened since I was given it six years ago. Of the 60 rail trips recommended from around the world, six are in the UK. Back then, the one that jumped out at me was a rail line I'd never heard of, between Swansea and Shrewsbury, even though the Swansea area is where I spend most of my time. On my way to work in Manchester I'd often travelled this way – east along the main line to Newport, then north on the pleasingly scenic Welsh Marches Line.But this wasn't Lonely Planet's choice. They'd gone for the Heart of Wales Line, which takes an improbably direct route, cutting across Mid-Wales from Llanelli to Craven Arms. Into my bucket list this journey went. But the thing with a bucket list is that, once you've turned the corner in the direction of bucket-kicking te...

Chilenischer Kupferproduzent erhöht aufgrund Angebotsknappheit seine Prämie (SG)
|
|
|
Berichten zufolge will der größte Kupferminenproduzent Chiles seine Prämie für wichtige europäische Kunden deutlich erhöhen. Mit den Gesprächen vertraute Quellen berichten von einer Prämie in Höhe von 325 USD je Tonne, was einer deutlichen Anhebung der Prämie für physische Kupferlieferungen von den bislang um die 230 USD je Tonne der letzten Jahre entsprechen würde. Grund dürfte ein knapperes Angebot sein, nachdem das Unternehmen mit Produktionsunterbrechungen zu kämpfen hatte. In diesem Jahr liegt die Förderung des Unternehmens rund 10% unter dem Vorjahresniveau. Allein im August verzeichnete es einen Produktionsrückgang um 25%, was auf den Produktionsstopp in der wichtigen Mine El Teniente nach einem Unfall zurückzuführen sein dürfte. Laut der zuständigen Regulierungsbehörde wird es einige Monate dauern, bis der Vorfall geprüft wurde, so dass unklar ist, wann der Betrieb in der Mine wieder vollumfänglich aufgenommen werden kann --- Chinesische Unternehmen wollen Metallexporte steigern..

A genuine treat for £1.60? Try the shortest railway line in Britain | Adrian Chiles (The Guardian)
|
|
|
There is an even shorter route in Germany, but that runs less frequently - which gives the shuttle train in my home town the moral victoryI took a train from one end of the line to the other, and it only cost me £1.60. And even though it took just three minutes to cover less than a mile, that still felt like a bargain. Because, although I've been riding the shuttle train between Stourbridge Junction and Stourbridge Town all my life, only now have I realised how special it is, being the shortest railway line in Britain.I whiled away the three-minute journey reading deeply into the subject. There were a couple of operators on board, which seemed a bit excessive under the circumstances, so I took the opportunity to bombard them with questions. I felt bad about asking this, but I wondered whether, when they were growing up wanting to be train drivers, this was quite what they had in mind. “Well, the thing is,” said one of them, “I never really wanted to be a train driver in the first place.” I could...
